Orion Law Management Orion Desktop Articles Reporting Blank Date Field Printing as 12/30/1899 Updated April 14, 2025 18:46 In the newer SQL data files, blank dates are actually stored as 12/30/1899 instead of an empty field. To set your report to display blank dates as a blank rather than 12/30/1899, you will need to go into your Report Style and locate the Date field object. Once located, click on the object to make it the active object (handle bars will appear). Right click on the object and choose the option "BlankWhenZero." Save your report style.
